More quotes by Albert Camus
There are people who vindicate the world, who help others live just by their presence.
Albert Camus
For those of us who have been thrown into hell, mysterious melodies and the torturing images of a vanished beauty will always bring us, in the midst of crime and folly, the echo of that harmonious insurrection which bears witness, throughout the centuries, to the greatness of humanity.
Albert Camus
The realization that life is absurd cannot be an end, but only a beginning.
Albert Camus
To feel absolutely right is the beginning of the end.
Albert Camus
The current motto for all of us can only be this: without giving up anything on the plane of justice, yield nothing on the plane of freedom.
Albert Camus
Having money is a way of being free of money.
Albert Camus
...he said firmly, God can help you. All the men I’ve seen in your position turned to Him in their time of trouble. Obviously, I replied, they were at liberty to do so, if they felt like it. I, however, didn’t want to be helped, and I hadn’t time to work up interest for something that didn’t interest me.
Albert Camus
There exists an obvious fact that seems utterly moral: namely, that a man is always prey to his truths. Once he has admitted them, he cannot free himself from them. One has to pay something. A man who has become conscious of the absurd is forever bound to it.
Albert Camus
The principles which men give to themselves end by overwhelming their noblest intentions.
Albert Camus
It's a kind of spiritual snobbery that makes people think they can be happy without money.
Albert Camus
Absolute freedom mocks at justice. Absolute justice denies freedom.
Albert Camus
Revolt and revolution both wind up at the same crossroads: the police, or folly.
Albert Camus
Wandering seemed no more than the happiness of an anxious man.
Albert Camus
To correct a natural indifference I was placed half-way between misery and the sun. Misery kept me from believing that all was well under the sun, and the sun taught me that history wasn't everything.
Albert Camus
For a man who loves power, competition from the gods is annoying. I have done away with that. I have proven to these illusory godsthat a man, if he has the will, can practice, without any apprenticeship, their ridiculous trade.
Albert Camus
Do you believe in God, doctor? No - but what does that really mean? I'm fumbling in the dark, struggling to make something out. But I've long ceased finding that original.
Albert Camus
They knew now that if there is one thing one can always yearn for, and sometimes attain, it is human love.
Albert Camus
I have not stopped loving that which is sacred in this world.
Albert Camus
Fate is not in man but around him
Albert Camus
It's better to bet on this life than on the next.
Albert Camus
